Across
- 2. NT associated with pain, stress, anxiety
- 4. time membrane is depolarizing; no stimulus
- 6. gaps between myelin sheaths
- 8. NT in CNS that is used in sensory perception, mood regulation, & helps in sleeping

- 13. regulates the ANS within the diencephalon
- 15. Nervous system division that is voluntary
- 16. protective involuntary;predictable response
- 17. fascia surrounding a nerve fiber
- 19. neuroglia in PNS that make myelin sheaths
- 22. impulse conducting cell
- 23. NT used in muscle contraction
- 26. cerebral area that receives info about proprioception & taste

- 28. "fight or flight" nervous system division
- 29. bundles of nerve fibers in the CNS
- 31. cerebral area that house olfactory & Wernicke area
- 34. area of brain coordinating muscle movements & helps maintain balance & posture
- 35. area of brainstem that connects the cerebellum & cerebrum with the spinal cord
- 36. largest superior part of brain
- 37. largest portion of diencephalon
- 38. grooves in cerebrum
- 39. when movement of sodium rushes into cell
